About CertainTeed Class Actions in Connecticut

Connecticut residents affected by CertainTeed product defects benefit from the state's robust consumer protection framework under the Connecticut Unfair Trade Practices Act (CUTPA), which provides broader remedies than federal regulations and allows for treble damages in certain cases. CertainTeed maintains significant operations throughout Connecticut, with authorized dealers and distributors serving the state's active construction and renovation market, particularly in Fairfield and New Haven counties where home values justify premium roofing materials. The company's Horizon shingles were widely installed on Connecticut homes during the 2000s and 2010s, leading to numerous warranty claims for premature granule loss and cracking. Connecticut residents filing class action claims must be aware that the state follows a three-year statute of limitations for property damage claims, though the discovery rule may extend this period. The Connecticut Attorney General's office actively monitors construction product settlements and maintains resources for affected consumers navigating class action procedures.

Are Connecticut homeowners eligible for the CertainTeed Horizon shingles settlement?

Yes, Connecticut homeowners who purchased or had CertainTeed Horizon shingles installed between specific dates covered by the settlement are eligible for compensation. The settlement covers various defects including premature granule loss and cracking that affected thousands of Connecticut homes.

Does Connecticut's CUTPA law provide additional protection beyond the CertainTeed class action settlement?

Connecticut's Unfair Trade Practices Act may provide additional remedies beyond class action settlements, including the possibility of treble damages for unfair business practices. However, participating in a class action settlement typically waives rights to pursue individual CUTPA claims for the same issues.

How long do Connecticut residents have to file a CertainTeed settlement claim?

Settlement claim deadlines vary by specific agreement, but Connecticut residents typically have several months from the settlement notice date to submit claims. Missing these deadlines generally forfeits your right to compensation, regardless of Connecticut's three-year statute of limitations for property damage.

Tips for Connecticut Residents Filing CertainTeed Claims

Connecticut homeowners should document all CertainTeed product installations with photos, receipts, and contractor records before filing settlement claims. Contact the Connecticut Attorney General's Consumer Protection Department if you suspect fraudulent settlement communications. Review your homeowner's insurance policy, as some carriers may have exclusions for known defective materials like CertainTeed Horizon shingles. Keep detailed records of any roof repairs or replacements, as these strengthen settlement claims. Consider consulting Connecticut attorneys experienced with construction defect cases, as CUTPA may provide additional remedies beyond class action settlements for qualifying situations.
